I agree, let's do a little historical review. Just some lowlights:
Muslims fly commercial airliners into buildings in New York City. No Muslim outrage.
Muslim officials block the exit where school girls are trying to escape a burning building because their faces were exposed. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims cut off the heads of three teenaged girls on their way to school in Indonesia. A Christian school. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder teachers trying to teach Muslim children in Iraq. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder over 80 tourists with car bombs outside cafes and hotels in Egypt. No Muslim outrage.
A Muslim attacks a missionary children's school in India. Kills six. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims slaughter hundreds of children and teachers in Beslan, Russia.
Muslims shoot children in the back. No Muslim outrage.
Let's go way back. Muslims kidnap and kill athletes at the Munich Summer Olympics. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims fire rocket-propelled grenades into schools full of children in Israel. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder more than 50 commuters in attacks on London subways and busses. Over 700 are injured. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims massacre dozens of innocents at a Passover Seder. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder innocent vacationers in Bali. No Muslim outrage.
Muslim newspapers publish anti-Semitic cartoons. No Muslim outrage
Muslims are involved, on one side or the other, in almost every one of the 125+ shooting wars around the world. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims beat the charred bodies of Western civilians with their shoes, then hang them from a bridge. No Muslim outrage.
Newspapers in Denmark and Norway publish cartoons depicting Mohammed. Muslims are outraged.
Dead children. Dead tourists. Dead teachers. Dead doctors and nurses. Death, destruction and mayhem around the world at the hands of Muslims .. no Muslim outrage ... but publish a cartoon depicting Mohammed with a bomb in his turban and all hell breaks loose.

Please, if you are fair, do not judge all people in a group by what a fraction of one percent do. Remember that out of 1.3 billion people, even one percent is 13 million. How can you blame all christians for something a very small minority does?
Islam is indeed a religion of peace. However, Islam also teaches that peace can not come if you let the aggressor win. Aggressors should be repulsed in all cases. If you allow aggressors to win, then the aggression would continue. It is the duty of the Muslim to fight back against aggression.
How do you define aggression from an Islamic point of view? You have to meet four criteria for that. The person would be considered an aggressor is he is armed, he is male, he is on your territory and is killing or hurting your people in the process. In that situation there is no peace with him until he is repelled and leaves or killed off.
Peace can not come by giving in to the Hitlers and Atillas of the World. Peace can come only when the good are strong and the criminals are weakened and subdued and put in their place or executed. It is that simple.

A Muslim, Christian, Jew, Hindu, etc. have one thing in common. They are all humans. Humans are not perfect as Humans do bad things some very sinful. Another problem I find not only in America but the Middle East is that they blame one mistake on the whole community. Just because one Muslim done bad means that everyone who is Muslim done bad. Same thing to a person who is Christian or whatever faith he/she belongs. Islam is peace. Today, Muslims wage into wars not because the Quran has verses which show violence but because they see mistreatment by their oppresors. Islam is also seperated into different sects like Sunni, Shiite, Wahabbi, and Sufi. I found this question pretty much a question you can answer yourself as God Almighty gave every human common sense.

People are different and cannot be judged solely on the basis of their religion.
And Hitler claim to be a Christian?
The Holocaust was caused by Christian fundamentalism:
History is currently being distorted by the millions of Christians who lie to have us believe that the Holocaust was not a Christian deed.
Didn't the Christians do the first act of hate with the Crusades back in the...12? Hundreds, where they slaughtered many atheists, Muslims and other people all in the name of god?
Timothy McVeigh, KKK, Bush and Milosevic, who killed millions of Muslims in Bosnia, were Christian too, well, hello??? are you insane?

Probably about as much as Christians are a peaceful people. But there are hundreds of varieties of Christians, some of whom are -- my apologies -- real whack jobs. Muslims don't have a monopoly on that. Sooner or later they'll find that policing their own so that the weirdos don't steal the show is a good idea.

Do some research on who ever started the idea of suicide bombing. It is the Christians, see what is happening and has been happening in Ireland. You will find that Irish people are more crazy than any body else on the world.

It's only a small minority that do that. Every religion, Christianity included, have their share of zealots who will do horrible things in the name of their gods. Is blowing up a car in Baghdad any different from blowing up an abortion clinic in Alabama?

I don't know where you ever got the idea that Islam was a peaceful religion. It began in war, and it spread by war, and it preserves itself through war. Muslims may greet you by saying, "Peace" but it's all talk.
